Worth while flick...

Rating: Null/10 (2 November 2005)

Sure, you can listen to the hype and believe 'The Island' was whack. Or you can go with your gut, as I did, see the flick and be damn glad you did so. The plot couldn't be more relevant (legislation occurring now & in the future will determine if the scenario in 'The Island' could actually happen), a good on screen chemistry from Ewan McGregor & Scarlet Johanson, a refreshing cameo appearance from Steve Buschemi, and of course the superb action sequences we've come to expect from director Michael Bay make 'The Island' an enjoyable, worth while rental. Also of note, a creative plot line where Ewan McGregor interacts with himself, and the fact that Scarlet Johanson looks amazing, as usual, makes this film a treat to watch.
